FAPESP has a long and successful history of supporting collaborative research with companies. The Program for Supporting Collaboration in Research between Universities/Institutes and Companies includes the following modalities:
The Bauru Basin is a vast geological unit located in south-central Brazil, formed by arid and semiarid environments through the deposition of aeolian and alluvial sediments. Among the Cretaceous continental basins of South America, the Bauru Basin stands out for its rich and diverse fauna of terrestrial vertebrates, including dinosaurs (with both birds and non-avian dinosaurs) and crocody…
Depressive disorder is characterized by anhedonia, self-care impairment, persistent sadness and negative thoughts for, at least, two weeks. Exposure to stress during infancy and adolescence, periods when the brain undergoes intense changes and maturation, may increase the risk to paychiatric disorders in adulthood. The purpose of the present proposal is to assess the effects of maternal d…

Maintaining genomic stability is crucial for cell survival and is ensured by complex DNA repair systems. Defects in these mechanisms are associated with various pathologies, including chromosomal instability syndromes and cancer predisposition. Cells deficient in nucleotide excision repair become hypersensitive to DNA-damaging agents. This project aims to investigate the cellular response…
The process of new drug discovery is complex and faces significant challenges, such as a high failure rate and limitations in preclinical steps through the use of conventional methods such as 2D cell culture and animal testing. Although they play an important role in basic research, both formats have several limitations, especially the mimicry of human physiology. To overcome these limita…
With the upcoming conclusion of the operation of the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), after its High-Luminosity phase, attention turns towards the next generation of colliders. Among the experiments planned for the next two decades, the ones that stand out the most are the so-called Higgs Factories. The cleaner environment provided by leptonic colliders might offer a better reach when looking…

Modernity, marked by technological and scientific advances, has intensified society's dependence on specialized knowledge, while also revealing its contingency. This scientific uncertainty can generate anxiety, which is aggravated by problems that directly affect the identity of the decision-maker, compromising their ontological security, which can occur in cases related to exposure to lo…
The implementation of this scholarship aims to provide the recipient with in-depth training through participation in postgraduate courses and studies on topics related to ethnographic documentation (for example, verbal arts, material knowledge, and/or the production of sociobiodiversity). The scholarship holder will carry out a comprehensive literature review on Indigenous peoples in rela…
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs), emitted by various industries and natural sources, are key precursors for haze formation in the atmosphere and also present a high potential for toxicity to humans. Many VOCs are toxic and can cause carcinogenic, mutagenic, and teratogenic effects in humans [1]. Therefore, it is very important to eliminate VOCs to meet environmental regulations and healt…

Glioblastoma remains one of the most aggressive and treatment-resistant brain tumors, largely due to the restrictive nature of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) and the limited bioavailability of systemic therapies. Axitinib, a potent VEGF receptor tyrosine kinase inhibitor, shows therapeutic potential for glioblastoma due to its anti-angiogenic properties. However, its clinical application i…
In horses, exercise on soft surfaces is known to alter energy consumption. Regarding muscle activation, it is understood that there is increased lumbar muscle demand under such conditions. However, information on the effect of different surfaces on limbs is still scarce. Surface electromyography (sEMG) is the most commonly used method to evaluate muscle contraction. By recording electrica…
This research project aims to analyze the dynamics of land and green grabbing in southern Piauí, emphasizing their implications for social and environmental justice. The study seeks to understand how technical systems, such as the Land Management System (SIGEF) and the Rural Environmental Registry System (SICAR), can paradoxically exacerbate inequalities in access to land and natural reso…

Research on happiness and well-being gained prominence mainly after the publication of the famous Stiglitz-Sen-Fitoussi Report in 2009. This report argued that governments and institutions should include measures related to these issues to guide their decisions. Since then, large-scale research has proliferated using simple instruments: one or a few questions asking respondents to broadly…
Urbanization is one of the primary forces transforming natural ecosystems, often resulting in biodiversity loss and degradation of ecosystem services. However, recent studies indicate that well-managed urban green spaces can serve as crucial refuges for pollinators, such as bees, which play a vital role in maintaining plant diversity and ensuring food security. Heterogeneous urban environ…
Lattices, which are discrete additive subgroups of Rn, have been studied for centuries and play a crucial role in various fields, including optimization, telecommunications, and cryptography. These structures are renowned for their significance associated with important mathematical problems, such as sphere packing. For decades, lattice codes have been proposed and used for signal transmi…
